James Gandolfini dead at 51 from stroke


 

I am sad to report that James Gandolfini was pronounced dead today at the age of 51. The cause was initially thought to be a heart attack but the latest news reports that he suffered from a stroke while attending a film festival in Italy. He is best known for his role as Tony Soprano on the HBO series, The Sopranos for which he earned a Golden Globe and six nominations in the Lead Actor in a Dramatic Series category. His latest work included a role in the film Zero Dark Thirty and The Incredible Burt Wonderstone. He is survived by his wife, Deborah Lin, a son and a baby daughter. He will definitely be remembered and missed.

 

James Gandolfini, who won three Emmys for his portrayal of flawed antihero and conflicted mob boss Tony Soprano in “The Sopranos,” died in Italy at the age of 51 of a possible heart attack. HBO reps confirmed his death on Wednesday.
